Chapter 51 Overseas Layout
In the principal's room of the Beijing Normal University Hall, Rong Hong, who returned to the principal's office first, told Li Enfu about Young Master Li's situation.
"He's the emperor?" Li Enfu was shocked. Li Enfu always thought that he was just a young master of a powerful official eunuch in the capital. Unexpectedly, he turned out to be the most powerful person in the world.
"I can't see it, right, the words and deeds of the emperor today are completely different from the emperor who is strategizing and thinking about the world that the old man saw in the palace. More like a fledgling big boy. Rong Hong stroked his beard and laughed: "I didn't expect the emperor to blush." β
"The teacher said before, the emperor wants to find students, isn't it anything?"
"The old man doesn't know. The emperor only saw your book "My Chinese Childhood", and repeatedly told you to return to China, only saying that there was something important to entrust. As for what is going on, I am afraid that I will have to talk to the emperor to find out. Rong Hong was a little worried: "Enfu, you have lived in the United States for a long time." Now back to the Qing Dynasty, some etiquette is indeed indispensable. Today's saint is a generation of saints, and he must not lose his honor before the king. β
"Such an emperor, why does the teacher repeatedly say that there is a generation of images of holy masters? The Chinese living in the United States have made such a great contribution to the United States, but in exchange for a paper anti-Chinese bill. If it is really a generation of holy masters, why can't we see the misery of the Chinese in the United States? Why can't you see the suffering of the Nanyang Chinese? Li Enfu, who sacrificed everything he had, still did his best for overseas Chinese: "Without the support of the motherland, the power of one person is too small." β
"Because the country is not strong enough, because the naval guns of the navy are not long enough, because the army has not yet landed. Mr. Li thinks that young master, am I qualified to be the leader of all this? Guangxu heard Li Enfu's complaint as soon as he entered the door: "I'm sorry, there was something just now." Guangxu smiled apologetically. Guangxu was very embarrassed, and he complained that he didn't help. It wasn't until a few months later, after Li Jurong's explanation, that Guangxu figured out why a joke could make An Qian so angry.
"See my emperor's ......." Seeing Leng Jun closing the door from the outside, Rong Hong immediately knelt down and saluted.
Guangxu waved his hand: "This is not a place for the court, so there is no need to be polite." Sit it all down. β
"Enfu, this is a saint, why don't you salute?" Rong Hong scolded in a low voice.
"Just rely on the phrase 'a century-old plan and education-based' to have a generation of holy lords? Teachers should not forget that students are now Americans, and there is no need to pay courtesy to the emperors of other countries. Li Enfu was still sitting quietly, and said unhurriedly.
Rong Hong was shocked: "Be bold and rich, and don't kneel down to confess." "The Son of Heaven is angry, and the blood is flowing like a river, but it is not a joke. Even if you are an American, if the emperor of a country really wants to make a person disappear, it is not just a matter of wanting to do so.
Guangxu heard the key to Li Enfu's words: "You have become an American citizen?" That's great. Such a big thing can be done. β
"The teacher has repeatedly mentioned that the emperor has important things to entrust, I don't know what?"
"Change the tragic situation of all overseas Chinese. I don't know if Mr. Enfu would like to accept it. β
When Li Enfu heard this, he immediately stood up: "If the emperor really has the heart to do it, Enfu will take it." β
"But to really do it, it will take a long time, maybe 20 years, maybe 30 years."
"Nothing can be done overnight, this time is the beginning of the blessing and the rich."
"This matter may be a matter of fate."
When Guangxu said this, Li Enfu had a desperate expression on his face. Thinking about his years of running, in the end, his wife left with her two daughters. Li Enfu let out a long breath: "I have nothing but one life. It's just that what to do, please show the emperor a thing or two. β
"You don't have nothing, you still have a wealth of knowledge, and you have a lot of blood that has never cooled down." Guangxu walked to the world map in the principal's room: "Elder Rong, do you know what I mean by asking you to hang a world map on every classroom?" β
"The emperor is reminding every student that the world is no longer the world dominated by the Qing Dynasty, and reminds every student to open his eyes to see the world."
"That's right, Enfu has ever thought about how respectful the Chinese were in various countries at that time when the Chinese nations came to the dynasty. Now the era of the Chinese Celestial Empire has long gone, and the first emperor Qianlong regarded overseas Chinese as outcasts of the Celestial Empire, so no one cared about the Hongxi tragedy. Since then, the Spanish powers have treated overseas Chinese as nothing, and they have taken what they wanted. Now the Qing Dynasty is even weaker and cowardly, and the Chinese nation's excellent character of hard work and resentment has become a slave that can be exploited and oppressed at will. If the British were to be unfairly or even persecuted in a foreign country, what would the British political axe do? β
"They will send warships to force other countries to give British citizens justice." Li Enfu has seen and heard too much about this kind of thing.
"Can our Chinese warships sail to the shores of the United States? No. So we need a piece, a springboard for attack. Guangxu pressed his index finger on the map: "Start here." β
"Honolulu?" Rong Hong and Li Enfu, who walked in front of the map, couldn't figure it out. What's the use of taking such a small island so far away, and how will it help overseas Chinese?
"That's right, it's Honolulu. This is the last small country in the world that has not been completely colonized. Take it and keep it firmly in our hands. "Guangxu's voice changed;" Exact information, the United States sugar merchants in Honolulu, with the secret support of the American political axe, are expected to launch a coup d'Γ©tat early next year, which may be January 1, to imprison Queen Honolulu. What we have to do is thwart their plot and use this opportunity to keep Honolulu in our hands. I have been secretly selecting personnel for this plan, and you, Li Enfu, are the most suitable, and your American citizenship can cover this mission well. Moreover, it can take care of Honolulu for the United States on the surface, but in fact, it will build it into a transit center for China's overseas and carry out some things that are inconvenient for domestic activities overseas. I have secretly selected a number of capable military personnel in the army, and there will not be many of them, and we will arrive in Honolulu by the beginning of December at the latest. At the same time, my overseas intelligence officer will also build the first overseas base in Honolulu. It's up to you. β
After speaking, Guangxu stared at Li Enfu and said: "Li Enfu, this is not that you are lobbying in the United States, you just need to move your mouth." This is a job with guns and guns, real guns. It's about Qingqing's surname, and you can't take this job. β
"As long as it is for overseas Chinese, there is nothing that I dare not accept. I just don't understand what this has to do with saving overseas Chinese? β
"Please." Guangxu looked helpless: "This has nothing to do with overseas Chinese, okay." If it's very related, it's only a small group of people who have a relationship, and it's all for the sake of China's future. β
"Since it has nothing to do with overseas Chinese, I can't do anything about it."
Li Enfu's disdainful expression made Guangxu furious: "I will use a cannon to block the door of your house, and then force your wife to annihilate, what can you do to me." Do you understand what I mean? β
"Then you don't understand what overseas Chinese are suffering." Lee Eun-bok was also furious.
"Defeated by you." Guangxu slapped his forehead: "Without a strong country as a backing, without a strong political axe support, any effort is so pale and powerless." That's why I said it would take twenty or thirty years. β
"The emperor is far-sighted, why don't you understand Enfu." Does Rong Hong really understand, or is he afraid that Guangxu will be angry and blame Li Enfu. In short, the gist of his words was as follows: "Now the Western powers are all eyeing the Qing Dynasty, and they want the Qing Dynasty to become their colony. Anything you want to do will provoke a reaction from all countries. Your Majesty, this is to let you stand in front of the emperor to cover for the emperor and plan for the future. Enfu, the emperor has high hopes for you. β
"That's right, that's what I mean. The Western powers never wanted to see a yellow man sitting at the negotiating table and haggling with the whites. If China wants to be strong, they will definitely interfere, and what they want is a China that is at their mercy and provides cheap raw materials and product dumping ground. Westerners once said that axioms are only within the range of a cannon, and we also have an old saying that a big fist is hard to speak. Like I've pointed a gun at your head, do you think I still need to consider your attitude? Therefore, there is only one way for overseas Chinese to truly get fair treatment. That is, there is a strong national support. β
"This can change the tragic situation of overseas Chinese?"
Stubborn, stubborn literati. You Li Enfu have also lived in the United States for a long time, why are you still so stubborn. Guangxu roared in his heart. Guangxu stared at Li Enfu viciously, and stepped forward step by step: "When the naval guns of the Chinese Navy destroyed the Statue of Liberty, when my army occupied New York. If those damn Yankees still dare to mention any Chinese exclusion bill......" Speaking of this, Guangxu pushed Li Enfu on his back, fished out a Mauser pistol from his arms, and then put the barrel into Li Enfu's mouth: "If this doesn't make the United States give the Chinese fair treatment, Lao Tzu doesn't care about killing the Yankees." β
The gun is in his mouth, if the emperor's hand holding the trigger shakes...... This is thrilling for Rong Hong. When Guangxu finished speaking and put the gun back in his arms, Rong Hong mentioned that the heart in his throat could finally be put down. How can the usually most intelligent students always make mistakes today.
Guangxu, who had only walked away for two steps, suddenly turned around and pointed at Li Enfu, who had just gotten up: "Do you think that apart from you, I have no one who can carry out this plan." β
When Guangxu stuffed a gun into Li Enfu's mouth, Li Enfu already understood. If you want others to respect you and want others to give you fair treatment, then you must have the strength not to lose to others and be able to compete with others. He didn't hear Guangxu's last sentence, he was immersed in his own world, calculating what conditions were needed to fulfill the emperor's instructions.
Li Enfu paced back and forth in the room over and over again, looking at his feet and the ceiling, and gesturing with his fingers from time to time. I also write and calculate on paper from time to time. Guangxu saw this and understood, Li Enfu got on his boat. Want to go down...... Hey.
What's he doing? Regarding Guangxu's question, Rong Hong could only shake his head: "Will it be ...... to leave such an important matter to him?"
"No, it won't." Guangxu said with certainty: "There is no doubt in employing people, and there is no need to suspect people." β
"How many troops will the United States use to carry out a coup d'Γ©tat against Honolulu early next year?" Li Enfu, who was halfway through writing, looked up and asked.
"Intelligence shows that there are about 100 people, and no more than 150 people at most." After Guangxu finished speaking, Li Enfu lowered his head and counted him again.
"No less than 100 personnel and supporting guns, ammunition, and intelligence will cost $3 million." Li Enfu, who had been calculating for a long time, stretched out his hand.
"Money is no problem. Besides, I've already said it. Personnel guns and ammunition will be given to you by the beginning of December at the latest, and the intelligence officer will give them to you, but you will have to set up the intelligence system yourself. "Don't you understand what I said earlier? Or did you Li Enfu not listen?
"The emperor already has such detailed information, what more intelligence system needs to be built? Just use it. Li Enfu really didn't understand.
"For security reasons, non-life-and-death information will not be used. In the future, you will not receive any more information from me, you will have to do it yourself. Don't do what you want in Honolulu, you don't have to ask for it. In fact, Guangxu only knows so much: "Also, if things can be done, wait for you to stand still." Go contact Chile. Chile's political axe, which has stabilized after the civil war, no longer needs so many warships, and it can buy them all, and can also order warships from Britain through Chile. Navy personnel can be recruited from overseas Chinese, and I will also arrange for a group of people to come over. β
When Li Enfu heard this, he began to calculate again, and then said: "After the matter is completed, I will give another 7 million US dollars." β
"Do you know how much $10 million is? It is equivalent to 80 million taels of silver, which is the annual income of the Qing Dynasty. Guangxu's eyes glared at the boss, and he roared angrily: "You should fight local tyrants and rob rich households." β
